The Common Core Initiative, consisting of the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices (NGA Center) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO), released this set of state-led education standards in June of this year. The English-language arts and mathematics standards for grades K-12 were developed in collaboration with content experts, states, teachers, school administrators and parents.

To date over 30 states have already adopted CCSS, which the 2010 Common Core Initiative states "provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so teachers and parents know what they need to do to help them." For more information go to
